Conservative provocateur James O'Keefe crossed the line and became a full-on creep, today. His latest prank: Luring and attempting to trap a "hot blonde" CNN reporter on a "pleasure palace" boat filled with dildos and sex toys.

The quote goes on, but I'll spare you. (Read it here if you must.) An excerpt from O'Keefe's preparations for the ambush, which CNN obtained and put on its website:

"Avoid Marvin Gaye as too cliche." What is wrong with this kid? Also: "condom jar"? This is simultaneously hilarious, terrifying, and deeply tragic. Poor James O'Keefe. He's going to die a virgin, isn't he?
